Chapter-1

Countdown

He was not perfect.

Perfection was him.

He was not defeatable.

Undefeatable was him.

He was not strong.

Strength was him.

As he stood on the white tiled battle ring in midst of a barren land devoid of any life, where some days later battles which would determine the fate of this planet would take place. Waiting for the universe's greatest warriors to assemble and fight him.

Born of Doctor Gero's destructive brain. He was not given birth. He was created.

He was the ultimate creation.

He was cell.

He was built from the DNA's of all great warriors like Freiza, Vegeta, Piccolo and also the person whom Gero wanted to kill desperately...Son Goku.

He already achieved his perfect form after he ingested and absorbed those two androids...the ones made to satisfy his insatiable appetite for power. And now, no one can defeat him. He was invincible.

He was indestructible.

Or...

Was he?

Life could become boring when you've thousands of years to live without sleeping. To Whis, it was not easy. The only thing he did was serve Beerus, and find new foods to eat. But even living this long...anything new and interesting was priceless.

But since some years, things have gotten interesting. As the attendant of lord Beerus – the god of destruction it was his duty to keep an eye on the strongest of the mortals, for many years, it had been Frieza. But some years ago Frieza was defeated by a...Saiyan. Not that he had personally liked Frieza. He had been truly surprised to know that some Saiyans had actually survived the destruction of planet Vegeta. One of them is the king's heir prince.

They all had settled themselves down on a small blue planet called Earth near the edge of the northern quadrant of milky way galaxy. It was then they had learned that some insane earthlings created some extremely powerful,only by mortal standards,artificial beings. They were all powerful but the last one created...a strange ugly grasshopper like creature which called himself Cell, was the strongest one. He had even absorbed the other two androids. He called himself perfect.

Whis snorted, although elegantly. The creature's wish was to fight the strongest warriors and then destroy the planet, which annoyed Whis greatly. If that Saiyan named Goku and his friends fail, then it might be dangerous for lord Beerus's reputation.

This was a matter that needed to be dealt with.

He sighed.

Lord Beerus – the god of destruction needed to be awakened.

As two figures launched themselves at eachother and attacked with sending flurry of punches and kicks at their opponents, the expanse of white shimmered with their golden auras. The older figure soon gained upper hand and launched a kick straight at the younger's side and sent him flying.

"Alright... It's enough for today Gohan. We need rest to continue. Ok? Let's go and have some sleep?" Goku said looking over his son, his hand clutching his injured shoulder.

"No dad! Let's do a bit more training...please!" the kid said, trying to get up, although he was swaying. He gave a battle cry as blazing golden aura surrounded his body, radiating massive energy, making his father astonished. But soon after that the boy fainted.

After coming over the shock Goku picked up his son in his arms and moved towards the bedroom.

A blue humanoid figure holding a scepter headed towards his master's strange bed room of floating rocks and hourglasses.

"Lord Beerus. Please wake up."

"Lord Beerus wake up."

"Beerus...if you don't wake up, I'll sing."

"Alright Whis...just do me a favour. Don't ever sing." Beerus groaned and after a series of strange antics which consisted of walking, crawling, rolling and swimming he finally landed in front of his attendant.

"Oh no! Now you're just being hurtful."

Beerus yawned and scratched himself as Whis said, " My lord. There's an important matter that needed to be dealt with. Or I wouldn't have awakened you."

"Fine Whis. But first just get me something to eat."

"Yeah...but I've prepared a bath for you, now go on before it gets cold."

"I'd rather not. You know I hate baths."

"You're covered in the filth and I'm sure that after you nap you would've got mould in your ears. Better go. Now."

As Beerus groaned Whis spoke again clutching his nose, "lord Beerus may be powerful, but boy, does he stink up a room? Soon I'll start calling you the destroyer of noses..."

Beerus narrowed his eyes and said in mock sinister way, " May be I should destroy you first Whis."

Sometime later they both sat on a large dining table Beerus clad in a white bathrobe stuffing his mouth with different foods, while Whis served him.

"What did you wanted to talk about Whis?"

"A powerful mortal creature, my lord..."

"Why didn't you ask that bastard Freiza to destroy him."

"I'm afraid he can't, my lord. The creature's far more powerful than Freiza ever was and another thing is that frieza's already dead."

"What? You mean somebody more powerful than Freiza? And I'm curious Whis...who defeated Frieza?"

"A Saiyan, my lord. Answers to both the names Kakkarot and Son Goku." Whis said showing the images of the fight between Goku and Frieza on his scepter.

"But didn't I ask Frieza to destroy planet Vegeta? I assumed that the same fate was destined to all the Saiyans."

"Yes my lord, most of them did perish. But few remained, who happened to be on other planets at that time. And I should mention that one of them is king's heir prince Vegeta."

"I see...so what about the creature?"

"He's a artificial life created by a revenge driven mad scientist called Gero. He also created three other artificial beings, two of them have been absorbed by this creature. He calls himself Cell. He's no ordinary warrior. He contains the cells of some of the best warriors of the universe which includes frieza, Goku , Vegeta and an extremely powerful Namekian residing on earth called Piccolo."

"Interesting..."

"He is but...I'm afraid my lord, that this creature has announced that a tournament is to be conducted by the name of Cell games. He has proposed that if the warriors of earth fail to defeat him, he'll actually destroy the planet and then move to other planets for destruction."

"What! How dare he! Nobody is allowed to destroy other than me! Or the ones I order to! Destruction is my job." Beerus bellowed angrily.

"I know sir. But I think it would be better choice to let earthlings defend their planet."

"Yeah, you're right! We'll let them fight first. But if they fail... I'll see that the creature is punished accordingly."

"Yes my lord. As you wish."

Whis was annoyed. Well, that was an understatement. He was super annoyed. Beerus had ordered him to find a opponent for a practice. Of course he was far more powerful that Cell guy but a opponent with a power level around Cell's was to be searched so that Beerus can push himself with holding back so that he doesn't destroy the planet called Earth.

God's have a strong sense of justice and respect. They cannot destroy planets and places unless something is done to offend them. Not even the god of destruction. Although, in case of lord Beerus, annoying him was as easy as differentiating between day and night. He could be angered with anything...like being given funny look, like being served food bad in taste, like losing in a game of hide and seek and the list goes on. But since the warriors of earth were doing everything in their power to keep their planet safe, they have to respect their efforts.

It was his job to look after Beerus's needs as his attendant. So here he was scanning through the whole universe to discover a worthy opponent for Beerus.

Suddenly his eyes lit up and a small satisfied smile stretched upon his lips.

"Lord Beerus!" He said to the feared god of destruction...who was currently arguing with oracle fish over some topic, threatening some adversary to the pet.

"Yeah..." he replied bored.

"My lord. I'm sure that all your sloppiness would vanish when I tell you...that...I finally found a suitable opponent for you."

As Whis knew...the response was immediate. Beerus grinned.

"Alright Whis! What are we waiting for?"

Whis nodded, as Beerus placed his arm upon his shoulder floating, his legs crossed in Indian style. Whis tapped his staff twice and next the next instant they were up in space with golden energy shrouding them
